How Much Things Change- Chapter 5
An hour later, Jay and I were leaving for our "date." We went to a local club. We each only drank soda. Jason paid. Then we played a game of pool. I let him win. We got back to our hotel room at nearly 2 in the morning. He walked me to my room and once I was safely inside, he went to his.
"Okay so spill it," Amber said as soon as I walked in. "What happened? I need details."
"Nothing happened. We went, got soda, played pool, talked and just hung out. We had a good time."
"So are you guys together now?"
"Yes. But now we have to find you a guy."
"Yeah but not Adam."
"Whats wrong with Adam?" I got very defensive.
"Wow, getting defensive about him aren't you? I'm sorry, its nothing personal against Adam, hes just not my type. Now Randy..."
"Are you falling for Randy?" She blushed. Before we could say any more, there was a knock on the door. I answered it. Adam was standing there.
"Hey feel like taking a walk?" Adam asked me.
"It's 2:30 in the morning. We've got a flight at 10:30 meaning I'll have to be at the airport by 8:30. I need beauty rest."
"You're already pretty enough. C'mon short walk. We need to talk."
"Fine. C'mon. It better be a short walk." I grabbed my key and stepped into the hallway with him allowing the door to slam shut. We took a few steps down the dark halway before he would talk.
"So how'd your date go?" Adam asked as we reached the elevator and he pressed the down button.
"It was good. What did Jay tell you about it?"
"He said he had a lot of fun and was soo happy you said yes. I'm glad you two had a good time together making you an offical couple. But now how are things going with you setting Amber and I up?" we rode down to the lobby together.
"Ya know Adam, don't get your heart too set on Amber. You guys haven't known each other that long. And she is two years older then you so I mean, you never know but don't get your hopes up too high because I'm not sure if she likes you as more than a friend and I don't want to see you hurt." We stepped of the elevator and walked over to the vending machine.
"That's so sweet of you. And I know you only say that because you care about me. But don't worry, I won't get my heart too involved. Besides I have faith in you Shannon. If anyone can make it happen, I know you can."
"Thanks for all the confidence in me." He hugged me.
"Aww, how cute. Sorry guys, I don't mean to interrupt your date," Stephanie said. "Shane told me you two were together, but wow you make such a cute couple."
"Thanks Steph," Adam said blushing.
"Steph, why are you in the lobby at 2:30 in the morning?" I inquired.
"Paul and I had a fight, so I took a walk." Steph explained.
"Let me buy the two of ya a snack," Adam offered.
"Thanks but its late and I don't want to cause a crowd. I'll see you guys tomorrow. And congratulations you two." She said walking away.
"Okay sorry Shannon, but that was very weird. I love you and would do anything for you. But you have to admit having your family dating is weird."
"Yeah it is weird, but I can't exactly tell my family I'm dating Aaron. You know they won't approve of him because hes not exactly from the same side of the tracks as me and because hes younger than me. My parents are strong believers that the guy should be older."
"I'm younger than you," Adam pointed out.
"Yes. And strangely enough they don't have a problem with it. Okay you promised me a short walk so lets go back upstairs."
"You go ahead. I'm gonna stay down here for a while."
"Okay. And Adam, thanks." I hugged him.
"Its no problem." I slowly walked back to the elevator. I pushed the up button. Just as the doors opened, Paul Levesque stepped up beside me.
"Mind if I ride up with you?" Paul asked.
"Its a free elevator." We entered together. Once the doors shut he started quizzing me.
"So you and Adam happy together?" Paul asked.
"Oh yes very."
"so your little date with Aaron tonight isn't causing problems?"
"How'd you know?"
"I saw you and Aaron together. And then I just heard your conversation with Adam."
"You aren't gonna tell daddy are you?"
"No. No. Of course not. This will be our little secret Shannon. No one needs to know."
"Why are you being so nice about this?" The elevator was open on my floor so we stepped into the hallway.
"Because you're my sister-in-law and I'm not as jerky as the character I play on TV."
"Thanks for keeping it on the down low. Goodnight."
